just because its a right traingle doesn't mean the middle piece is sloped in any specific way. The x axis leg could extend far longer than the y axis leg, meaning the slope of the line connecting the two(hypotnuse) would be really small making the line really big.

im 99% sure im right.
The legth of it is based on the slope(the only unknown factor( so x) and a point on the line. I simplified a bunch of formulas into one easy formula, i can't believe i'm not correct.
Really someone explain how my formula doesn't work for every single slope value ever(slopes have to be negative btw)
